How Do You Know?

There are many, many different religions in the world today. People who are devoted to their beliefs have lives that demonstrate it. Where does their devotion come from? They know their stuff!

Let me ask a question. If you were arrested for being a Christian, would there be enough evidence to convict you? We have the power to live with a devotion to Christ that demonstrates His life changing power. How is this possible? Take a look.

Psalms 119:9 How can a young man cleans his way? By taking heed according to Your word. Psalms 119:11 Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee. Psalms 119:105 Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. Hebrews 4:12
For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. Ephesians 6:17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:

Are you beginning to see a pattern yet? We must spend time hearing, reading, studying and memorizing the Word! Essentially if we are to have an impact in this world we must know our stuff!

If you already take time to memorize scripture wonderful!  If you don't even know where to start hook up with someone in your church that can help you. If you need further help please send me a comment and I will get back with you!

 * I Peter 2:9  But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvelous light:
*James 2:19 Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and
tremble.
*II Corinthians 2:11 Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.
